Amazing thank you for this video. Now through out of this video I understand how does stand pipe system and sprinkler system work. I'm studying Fire safety curriculum to become FLSD and now I'm confident that I could easily pass my exam. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience 🙏🙏🙏

I have just recently stumbled across your videos. I find them to be very informative and helpful. I have also informed our apprentices to check out your videos. My background is I have been in the Fire protection Industry for 32 years. I was in the installation of Fire Sprinkler Systems for 22 or 23 years and the last 10 years doing Service, Inspections and Testing. I hold a NICET III In water based systems and Backflow license in Georgia and Florida. What really got my attention was the topic of testing and inspection of PRV on standpipe systems. As an inspector in Georgia I have only been part of testing PRV with one company. I have often questioned why is it we go into a building being 4 stories or 90 and the standpipe system is never on our reports. I will say that whenever I go on a new inspection I will inventory the standpipe systems as part of the report. I’m not saying these systems aren’t getting tested. I’m sure most companies hire them out to inspectors who do that everyday. I just find it odd that it’s not being done in house. Keep the videos coming I learn something new everyday or doing something a different way that I was taught. God speed Neil

I’d like to learn and interest fire protection systems

[@DeathWish1974]

You better explain the indicators for each type of valve!

[@larryzdanis5377]

Great video/overview.. room for improvement in volume control - sometimes barelys audible and other times loud.

[@Sprinklermatic]

Thanks for your comments. We've made some improvements on the sound quality of videos in the wet lab since this video was made in 2018, but we appreciate your comments!

We are having an issue with the city water I presume. Our jockey pump will go into overload and you can see the pipes shaking violently but the diesel pumps don not start.

[@mikefuentes2657]

What city are you in ?

[@NeilMarsh-h8g]

Probably more of a sensing line problem than a water problem. I have seen this if the sensing line doesn’t have the correct orifice unions in the line at proper distance between each union.

[@Ajcruz913]

I live in NY and have an s12 and s13 could I just apply for jobs in this industry? or is there something more I need to obtain before I apply?

[@jayrod0603]

You can apply to sprinkler companies. It’s required by contractors for you to have it before doing any work to a active sprinkler system. You should get fire guard and Osha as well.

[@coolboii900]

Hi Andy do you have I way I could contact you about questions relating to the s12 and 13

[@sethgauby8730]

so, is Capt. Gustin saying not to pump into a system with a fire pump running ?

[@Sprinklermatic]

If the pressure of the Fire Pump exceeds the pressure of the pumper, that's correct that you would not pump into a system with a fire pump running. If the pressure of the Fire Pump does not exceed the pressure of the pumper then you could pump into the system with the fire pump running. An example, a small fire pump for fire sprinkler demand, you would pump into the FDC for the standpipe demand.

[@sethgauby8730]

@@Sprinklermatic thanks for the info and the quick reply!

[@kevincawann]

So the only water the fire department pumps will be used is if we the fire department pumper pressure is higher ???

[@ronwikeheiser6706]

Well the shift type of dry head are not used much these days anymore most are filled with nitrogen well like you said you are old school lol

[@ronwikeheiser6706]

And with a alarm valve we usually put a excess pressure pump in to pump the system side up to look after water hammer

[@ronwikeheiser6706]

And a pressure switch with the excess press pump to take it up and maintain the extra pressure
